Abstract
Concepts and technologies are described herein for providing a context-aware display of objects in mixed environments. The computing device displays an image on an interface. Data associated with at least one object is obtained from one or more resources, such as a camera, sensor and/or an external device. The obtained data is analyzed to determine if the object is of interest. Any number of factors, including a context associated with the object, may be used to determine if an object is of interest. The computing device modifies a display property, such as a transparency parameter, of a selected portion of the image, depending on obtained data and/or contextual data. Depending on the obtained data and/or contextual data, the computing device may display a visual indicator representing the object, an image of the object within the selected portion of the image, and/or any other object or indicator.
